I had to read it twice, but I think Harry expected to see some object
from the memory he had just watched, like last time.  He didn't know
the ring had been a horcrux, he just saw it in the memory, then on the
table.  So, he expected to see a souvenier from the TRJr. memory, too.
 Why the mouth organ rather than the yo-yo, I don't know.  DD calls
his observation astute because he understood Harry didn't mean
precisely the mouth organ, but any object from the box.
